I, Jianhao, infinite flow

The scorching gaze made Yun Tian helplessly stop his movements.

Pushing the snack box in front of him to the middle of the table, Yun Tian asked:

"Want to eat?"

"is it okay?"

Although it was a question, Youyouzi's hand reached out to the box one step earlier than her words, and before she finished speaking, her white little hand had already touched inside the box.

Yun Tian laughed and shook his head helplessly.

The first impression Yuyuko gave him was actually quite dreamy, a gentle, elegant, and dreamlike young lady, perhaps with a hint of naughtiness in her personality.

Generally speaking, Youyouzi fits Yuntian's general understanding of "the eldest lady of the family".

But now this foodie look with his eyes lit up when he heard that he could eat, completely overturned Yuntian's first impression of Youyuzi.

How should I put it, it's pretty cute?

Thinking of this, Yun Tian put the biscuit in his mouth into his mouth, and then reached out to take another one.

"...?" The lonely Yun Tian slowly put out a question mark.

Looking at the table, I found that the third box was empty at some point.

Youmeng on the side looked at Yuyuko wanting to cry without tears, because she didn't know that someone would visit, so she didn't prepare many such snacks for entertaining guests.

The third box is the last one, and the fourth box cannot be changed no matter what.

In the end, all of them were eaten by his eldest lady, and Yuntian's three boxes of snacks as a guest only ate one piece of biscuit.

Originally, Youmu was a little concerned about whether Yuntian's sense of the Xixingji family would be lowered because of the previous conflict, but now it's doing well, and he didn't even do a good job in entertaining.

If Yun Tian finds her grandfather Yaoji to complain about this after leaving, then he will probably be scolded to death by his grandfather for such a 'negligent' performance.

Thinking of this, Youmu immediately became nervous, and hurriedly said:

"That, that, that, that! I'm going to prepare dinner now! Please, please wait!"

"and many more."

Seeing the girl's panicked back, Yun Tian called out to stop her.

Yun Tian, ​​who is self-aware of his own appetite, wants to eat enough, and the other is worried that the atmosphere will become awkward, so he offered to help.

After all, Yuntian hadn't seen anyone in this mansion except Yuyuko and Youmu from just now, which made him suspect that Youmu would be responsible for preparing the dinner alone.

"I'll go with you, I should be able to help."

"No! How can I ask the guests to help me with the cooking! And don't look at me like this, I'm actually very good at cooking!" Yun Tian's words aroused strong objections from Youmeng.

"But my appetite is pretty big. If Youmeng is doing it by yourself..." Yun Tian hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his worry bluntly.

But I didn't expect that when I heard it was 'a lot of food', Youmu, who was a little nervous, suddenly became full of confidence.

The girl patted her chest, and confidently said to Yun Tian:

"Don't worry, if it's just a big appetite, there's no problem leaving it to me!"

After all, Yuntian is a human being, how much will he eat if he can eat it?

Even if he is really a big eater, can he still eat more than that bottomless pit of his eldest lady!

Anyway, she has to cook a huge amount of food every day, she has long been used to it, and it doesn't matter if she is alone on a cloudy day.

"No no...my appetite is really big."

"It's okay! I will cook a lot, so stay tuned!"

After finishing speaking, without giving Yuntian a chance to continue speaking, Yaomeng ran away confidently.

Looking at the girl's back when she left, Yun Tian always felt that this scene seemed familiar.

"Youmu is a capable child, you won't be disappointed~"

Youyouzi's voice with a smile came over, and Yun Tian raised his eyebrows after regaining his senses, and nodded without saying anything.

Now that this is the case, he can look forward to it.

"Having said that, I can see that you have a lot of doubts. You are still waiting for dinner anyway. You can just ask."

"Doubtful."

What Youyouzi said is correct, Yuntian did have a lot of questions along the way, out of etiquette he didn't ask at the first time, it's just good to be pointed out by the other party now.

but

"Honestly, there are so many questions I want to ask, and for a while I didn't know where to start."

"Where to start... Then, how about answering a question for me first?" Yuyuko looked at Yuntian and took up the topic with a smile.

"Of course, what do you want to ask?"

"Yun Tian, ​​as a human being, is this the first time you have come to the underworld?"

"Well, that's right."

"Then let's talk about your views on the underworld. I'm a little curious about what it would be like to see the underworld from a human perspective."

"What do you think about the underworld..." Yun Tian pondered for a moment.

He didn't speak immediately, but thought carefully and recalled every scene he saw during the journey from the stairs of Baiyulou to entering the house.

After a while, Yun Tian said:

"If you want to talk about your first impression, it should be 'surprised'. As for now, in retrospect, the most impressive thing for me is 'quiet'."

1365 Ghosts and Undead

Surprised, this was Yuntian's first impression after knowing that the place he came from was the underworld, and this impression became stronger as he went all the way to Baiyulou.

Magnificent architecture, beautiful scenery, cherry blossoms, pine trees, and mountains and rivers in the courtyard.

If Yuntian hadn't known that this was the underworld, he definitely wouldn't have linked this place with the world of the dead in his memory.

The gap between impression and imagination is too great.

"Surprised and quiet." Youyouzi read the evaluation given by Yuntian, and after a moment of silence, he said to him:

"The underworld is indeed the world of the dead, but it is different from hell."

"After death, people will go through the middle way, cross the Santu River to reach the other bank, and accept the trial of Yan Mo in the right and wrong hall on the other bank, and then go to hell, underworld, and heaven according to the severity of the 'sin'."

Yun Tian didn't interrupt You Youzi's words, but listened carefully to her explanation.

"There are celestial beings living in the heavens, some are immortals who have achieved success in cultivation, and some are ghosts who can ascend if they meet the conditions. They are part of the so-called 'goodness' after going through the trial."

"And the ghosts of the 'sin' will go to hell, ah, to be precise, the 'new hell', in addition to the 'old hell' and some unregulated areas."

"It's a real world there, and it's not the same as the 'reform through labor facilities' that people talk about~"

Youyouzi smiled mischievously at Yuntian, and said in a vicious way:

"Find out for yourself if you ever get the chance to go to hell."

"You are cursing me to go to hell." Yun Tian shook his head with a smile.

However, he also knew that if he really died, he might be more likely to go to hell than ascend to heaven.

Of course, as the representative of the main god's space, Yuntian is really going to die, and it is unknown whether his soul will stay in the mission world or be recovered by the main god's space.

After all, the definition of "death" in the Lord God Space is different from that in the mission world, and there are also special agents such as spirit bodies and soul bodies.

"Speaking of going to hell, I don't know if Yingji has paid attention to the underworld recently. If a human like you comes to the underworld, if she knows about it, she will definitely give a good lecture."

"Yingji?"

"Siji Yingji, a Yan Mo, is my boss in name."

"Yan Mo from hell is the boss of the manager of the underworld?" Yun Tian raised his eyebrows.

"Different from worlds such as hell, heaven, and the real world, the underworld itself is not a world formed naturally, but created."

Yuyuko took a sip of tea, her eyes drifted to the three empty dessert boxes, she paused for a moment before continuing:

"The world is not black and white. Some people will go to heaven after death, and some people will go to hell after death, but most of them are gray in between."

"The world where ghosts who have no merit or fault, are not guilty enough to go to hell, have insufficient merit or do not want to go to heaven stay before reincarnation. This is the 'underworld'."

"Because it is a created world, the underworld refers to the present world, which is different from the desolate hell and the unchanging heaven."

"Day and night are divided into four seasons. Cherry blossoms bloom in spring and red maples fall in autumn. In terms of scenery alone, it should be much more beautiful than many places in the present world."

Listening to Youyouzi's explanation, Yun Tian finally understood why this underworld made him feel disobedient.

"And the other comment you said, the reason for being quiet is also because of this."

Youyouzi pointed to the courtyard outside, and Yun Tian followed her movement and looked out at the courtyard through the paper door of the Far Eastern style.

"After all, this is the world of the dead. Whether it's flowers, birds, fish, insects or mountains, rivers and plants, they are all dead things."

The underworld is a world without 'life'.

There is no sound of breathing, no sound of footsteps, no sound of flapping wings, and ghosts cannot speak or sing. All rhythms of life do not exist here, so it looks extremely quiet.

"Ghost...But, as the manager of the underworld, you seem to be a little different?" Yun Tian looked at Youyouzi and asked his own doubts.

In the vast courtyard in front of the Baiyu Building, Yun Tian also saw many ghosts.

Just like Youyouzi said, they can't speak, and they don't even have a body, just cloud-like white spirit bodies floating around.

The cherry trees are tangible, but they are also dead objects. Yuntian can't feel a breath of life from them, and they are obviously special species unique to the underworld.

But as the manager of the underworld, although Yuyuko also has no life breath on her body, she is different from other ghosts in that she has a body, can speak, and can also enjoy delicious food.

"Of course it's because I'm not a ghost~" Yuyuko smiled softly.

She stretched out her hand and tapped on the table, making a clear 'dong'.

"I'm an undead, and Youmu is half-human, half-soul."

Youyouzi's words made Yuntian have new doubts, he looked at Youyouzi's hand on the table, and recalled the ghost he had seen in the courtyard before.

After a moment of contemplation, he asked:
